New Zealand Now - Families and Households (Census 96) (1998) - Reference Reports
What It's About



New Zealand Now - Families and Households is a further publication in the much-acclaimed second series. Written to appeal to a wide general readership these books bring together a diverse range of topical New Zealand subjects.


Families and Households outlines the current state of New Zealand families by drawing together information from the 1996 Census of Population and Dwellings. The text explains what the family is and how it has changed over time, and analysis of selected family types, which encompasses ethnicity, income, one-parent families and household composition. The changes that have affected family composition, such as variations in the rates of marriage, divorce and fertility, and the age structure of the population are also discussed.
